Actually, I'll just stick to racking the piss out of myself for the mo' so as not to risk narking anyone off =). If you've got any cynical, xenophobic contributions to make (that are perhaps a bit too risque to post on the groups), then send them in and I might consider them (unless everyone gets all moral and girly about it, in which case I'll totally condemn it). err.. on second thoughts - that's hardly going to get much sympathy. It was a joke.. honest. Rob Ryan. "..on my back, in a field, with a row of hyperdermic needles in each arm. Surrounded by freshly slaughtered cattle, their blood steaming in the mid-winter air as naked sixth-form school girls frolic and gambol over my champagne smeared body.." - still looking for a better sig than Nick. ps. while we're on the subject: does James Russell use some sort of fortune cookie program, or does he just rotate his .sigs regularly? He must have the second best sigs on the groups at the moment.
